This might seem like a dumb question but I was wondering about how large of a shot of nitrous could I handle on my car. Its a ls1 block with a stock crank, mahle pistons, eagle connecting rods, main studs, head studs, ported 243 heads, GM MLS head gaskets, 231/237 cam .598 lift, hardened push rods, Ported high pressure oil pump, Kooks 1 7/8 headers exhaust, lots of small mods. Compression is about 10.8 to 1. The car is not driven daily anymore just for fun really and I was wondering what anyone thinks I can get away with. Its still got the stock ls1 intake lol but I have a professional products 96mm one sitting here and as soon as I get a throttle body for it, its going on.

 

Are the pistons designed for nitrous use?

I dont think they are they are made from 4032 High Silicone low expansion alloy. I just found them for cheap and needed a rebuild on my motor. I didnt wanna put too much into it really. I found all my parts for dirty cheap lol. But any ideas would be appriciated. I also need a new set of solenoids my gas one doesnt work anymore or maybe just find a new kit.

 

250 no problem.
